Flowers look so beautiful and innocent, but they are the stage for many of nature's ambushes. If you click on the dahlia, you can see the spider having ambushed the bee.
The lacy white blooms of the American Elder look too pretty to be dangerous. Click on the last picture and you will see the mantid waiting patiently to catch an unsuspecting prey.
Very nice photos and you are right about those lurking dangers.
